Been a little quiet on the practical shooting front for the last couple of weeks. Since getting back from Gran Canaria I have had to withdraw from 2 competitions due to injury and illness.
Severely sprained my ankle on holiday meaning the match right after we got home was a no go, and had the lurgy since the flight back which has gone round our house twice since we returned and not wanting to spread it at competitions.
Missing both matches was even more of a shitter as I've been wanting to get out in my new @lantac_uk @lantac_usa shirt courtesy of @madaboutshooting
It was about time I got some new threads for shooting in... 😀
Looking forward to Yeaveley Level 3 coming up, my ankles not at 100%, but gotta try and give it all! Now, Where's the chicken soup?! 🤒

Well, bugger.
Tried to make the best of today, feeling like shite so thought I'd put the last 2 guitar stands up in the man cave.
Put the hollow wall anchor in and the screw just keep turning, so tried to straighten it out and pull it out to replace with a new anchor and it wasn't straightened out enough so pulled half the wall with it.
If it wasn't for the precise distance between each hanger I'd just move the end hanger and fill the hole with filler, as it happens I need yo try and repair it to hang another guitar! Doh!
Walls made of paper 😞

This is my 1000th post on Instagram. I could think of nothing more than posts of my girls for number 1000!
We recently went on Bubbs first abroad holiday, and our first holiday post covid.
We had a great time with fabulous food and lovely views and a boat load of sunshine!
It was a lovely time, wish we could be back there now!

Lovely date day today with @catyuk
Think this is our first actual date sans child since she was born...
Chiquitos, cocktails and Jurrassic Park at the cinema!
Great day. Chilling with the little one watching Glasto now...

Full single speed version on my Youtube (if you like that kind of thing...)

One from last night after I'd just managed to paint the replacement fence panels on the garden.
Well deserved rum and coke.

Results for the NRA Minirifle League 2021 are out.
Congratulations to @team_ducker for the win 💪
@jim_starley_shooting for the close 🥈
And @bulletsandpixelsuk for 🥉
One more person between me and a podium last year in the shape of @kelvin_uk_shooter!
Not unhappy with my position. Onwards and upwards.
